1 Kings 22:33 in Context — 1 Kings 22

31 Le roi de Syrie avait donné cet ordre aux trente-deux chefs de ses chars: Vous n’attaquerez ni petits ni grands, mais vous attaquerez seulement le roi d’Israël.

32 Quand les chefs des chars aperçurent Josaphat, ils dirent: Certainement, c’est le roi d’Israël. Et ils s’approchèrent de lui pour l’attaquer. Josaphat poussa un cri.

33 Les chefs des chars, voyant que ce n’était pas le roi d’Israël, s’éloignèrent de lui.

34 Alors un homme tira de son arc au hasard, et frappa le roi d’Israël au défaut de la cuirasse. Le roi dit à celui qui dirigeait son char: Tourne, et fais-moi sortir du champ de bataille, car je suis blessé.

35 Le combat devint acharné ce jour-là. Le roi fut retenu dans son char en face des Syriens, et il mourut le soir. Le sang de la blessure coula dans l’intérieur du char.
